Electrostatics -- Part 4-3: Standard test methods for specific applications - Footwear
Describes a test method for determining the electrical resistance of footwear used in the control of electrostatic potential on people. This standard is suitable for use by the manufacturer of footwear as well as the end user. A method for measuring the electrical resistance of footwear alone is described and serves as an acceptance test for new footwear. Insulating footwear is not included within the scope of this standard although the electrical resistance measurement techniques may be applicable.

Electrostatique -- Partie 4-3: Méthodes d'essai normalisées pour des applications spécifiques - Chaussures
Décrit une méthode d'essai employée pour déterminer la résistance électrique des chaussures utilisées pour le contrôle du potentiel électrostatique du personnel. Cette norme est utilisable aussi bien par les fabricants de chaussures que par les utilisateurs finaux. Une méthode pour mesurer la résistance électrique de la chaussure seule est décrite et sert d'essai d'acceptation pour de nouvelles chaussures. Les chaussures isolantes ne sont pas incluses dans le domaine d'application de cette norme bien que les techniques de mesure de la résistance électrique puissent y être appliquées.

FOREWORD
1) The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, the IEC publishes International Standards. Their preparation is
entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may
participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. The IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization
for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two
organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of the IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an
international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation
from all interested National Committees.
3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the form
of standards, technical specifications, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National
Committees in that sense.
4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International
Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any
divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly
indicated in the latter.
5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards.
6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject
of patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 61340-4-3 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 101:
Electrostatics.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
101/123/FDIS 101/124/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
voting indicated in the above table.
This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged
until 2011. At this date, the publication will be
• reconfirmed;
• withdrawn;
• replaced by a revised edition, or
• amended.

INTRODUCTION
Footwear, especially shoes, have become an important electrostatic control device in all areas,
but particularly in electronics manufacturing. Standards exist from various national committees
and these have served as guidance in the preparation of this first International Standard for
electrostatic control footwear.
Control of unwanted electrostatic charge is of particular importance where personnel work
around electrostatic-sensitive processes, materials or items. In many cases, devices such as
wrist straps or other devices are employed to provide an electrical bond between a person’s
skin and a ground connection. Many instances exist in industry where wrist straps or other
tethering devices cannot be safely or conveniently applied, but there is still a need to provide a
ground connection for personnel. A convenient method to provide a ground connection for
personnel is through their feet while standing or walking on a defined and properly specified
electrostatic control floor surface.
The measurement method described in this part of IEC 61340 can be used to monitor electrical
specifications of footwear during manufacture, prior to selection by an end user or periodically
during use. The method described involves the use of a specific set of test equipment and
instruments. Other equipment and instruments may be used to measure
